With Fire and Sword : The Battle of Bunker Hill and the Beginning of the American Revolution
If Lexington and Concord was the "shot heard round the world," the Battle of Bunker Hill - the first time that a genuine American army had ever taken the field - was the volley that rocked Parliament and the ministry of George III. In the tradition of David McCullough's 1776 and David Hackett Fischer's Washington's Crossing, Nelson's With Fire and Sword reveals the dramatic story of a fight that changed the face of the Revolution.
